Tab-Deliminated File to Html table

December 14th, 2005

It’s always annoying when I have to convert a tab-deliminated file to a html table so that I can post it on my project website. I usually did it by hands. Yes, it was dumb. I was trying to find a freeware to do this for me but I couldn’t find one. I was trying to use excel. It put too much junk in my html table. So, I decided to write a little program that read from standard input the tab deliminated file and write html table to stdoutput. Ex: java HtmlTable < input.txt > output.txt.

Note that you need to compile it first: to compile just type javac HtmlTable.java.
